I think the salt in the wound on this whole thing is that AMD helped Intel do an APU that crushes the shit out of their offerings. I have absolutely no idea why they didn't make a 95W Raven Ridge part. Boggles my fucking mind.EDIT: Case in point. If you look at power consumption on the 2200G it is around 45W with a peak of 57W. The 2400 runs at an average of 50W with peaks around 65W.http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/amd-ryzen-5-2400g-zen-vega-cpu-gpu,5467-5.htmlDoing a wee bit of napkin math you can come to the conclusion that the power draw per Vega CU is somewhere around 2W. Adding 30W to the TDP budget would hypothetically allow them to add 15 cores to the 11 already on the 2400G for a total of 26. This is two more Vega CUs (8% more) than on the Hades Canyon chip which exceeds the performance of the RX 570 and maybe even the RX 580. What the actual fuck AMD letting Intel cannabalize your entire lower end GPU market and then not taking a piece of the action for yourself.
